Jessica Schroeder, yes, Wildbrook limits its camp size to what it already is, so there is a wait list for some of the age groups. There may be some space in some age groups, it may be worth it to check with them directly. In any case, if there is a wait list for your age group, I would suggest going on the wait list - spaces do open up, and it took us a year to get in. Once one child is in, the rest of your children are automatically in as well. It is a super camp that really creates lasting friendships among the kids from year to year. My daughter can't wait go back this summer and see her friends. They have every sport imaginable, swimming pool, archery, soccer, games, team-building activities, crafts, creeking, you name it…

Beth D. replied:
Acting up and The Children's theatre of Mason have summer camps for kids. Check on their websites The Cincinnati Children's theater also has kids camps, but it's downtown. There are also acting camps at Gray Acting Studio which are wonderful, but out on the west side of Cincinnati. The Aronoff also holds acting camps for kids-I know Jersey a Productions has a 2 week camp there this summer.
